So, I've been working on my Grey Knights army list and wanted to get some clarification. It's been a little while since I've played so I'm a bit rusty.

If I take a Brotherhood Banner taken as in upgrade it states "all models" in the same unit get plus one attack. If a Librarian is taken in the same unit does he then get the benefit of the plus one attack?

Yes, as the Librarian is part of the unit at the time. While he is separate when you work out attacks, he has already gained the bonus by that point.

The BhB is a very, very good upgrade.

Okay, cool. So, here's another one.

When building a unit let's say I use the Brotherhood banner for that unit and, come game time, I split them into Combat Squads. The only part of the unit that gets the bonus would be the squad that deploys with it, correct?

Yes.

After combat squading you are in effect... 2 units.

Not just "in effect", you actually ARE two units.

Thank you all for clarifying.

Here's another. When equipping the GK Dreadknight I can take 2 different guns. If I do I can still take a Great Sword or Deamonhammer, correct?

yes. two guns and a CC weapon.

Sweet...

And a HELL of a lot of points. TBH the only good gun is the Heavy Incinerator.

Gatling psilencer is a lot of S4 shots in an army that already puts out a lot of S4 shots. Shame, as rolling that many dice is always fun

Maybe if it were AP3 it might be decent, but as it is, it's just got nothing on the Psycannon or Incinerator.

The blast psycannon that is less accurate and far worse against vehicles than the normal psycannon, while costing twice as much?

That one? Really?

H Incinerator all the way. GReat way to put wounds on an otherwise tricky to reach squad.

I'm talking about Psilencers in general, not just the heavy version.

Ah right, i was talking about the weapon load outs

Yep, the psilencer is just....poor, whatever version. Shame as it is a LOVELY weapon model....

But when attacks are resolved they are treated as a seperate unit so wouldn't the +1 attack bonus disapear since when he attacks he not counted as part of that unit. Hes part of the unit but whne it comes to attack his link to the unit disapears in a sense, so he is in the unit but he's treated as a sepreate unit when he attacks thus losing the benfits form the banner.

Only when resolving the attacks, as per page 49

You work out how many attacks you have before you resolve them, otherwise you dont know how many attacks you're going to resolve....
